The thing that blows my mind about these, and a lot of magazine ads from the '70s, is how *text heavy* they are. I think magazine ads have been all about "tldr" my whole life. Just pics of sexy people and two or three words now.

Dude, dude, dude, me too. Ok, I started smoking when I was 23, when any doc will tell you smoking almost never starts after teen years. Do you want to know why? I got all these '70s Playboys at an estate sale, and every other ad is for cigarettes, of course, full of loving, seductive paragraphs about how cigarettes are the most delicious, essential, amazing things ever. It was all that text that got me!

For an alternate approach, maybe somebody can post the ad for Costello's Imperial Bedroom (not having any luck finding it). I think it had a single word: "Masterpiece?"

― Sterling-Kinney (Tarfumes The Escape Goat), Monday, 18 October 2010 15:18 (fifteen years ago)
man tyler GOOD spot there.
reading ads like the one for Stage Fright makes me wish, as I sometimes do, for a more ambitious mood in rock -- it's like, mainstream rock, its main ambition is & generally has been to reach a lot of people & sell a lot of records, which is fine, but the rhetoric of that Stage Fright ad - "This album is another further step* in The Band's development." (paragraph break) "In the development of our music." (paragraph break) "The music of our age." -- I mean, if that were the norm, the need to deflate it would be & was great, but I feel like there's also value of some kind in Taking It Too Seriously. That framing the presentation in those sorts of terms affects the actual text (i.e. the album)/experience in some way, and maybe also does so before it even gets made - there's this sense that whether the guys making the record are in fact too high to even think right, they're surrounded by this idea that what they're doing is somehow important, which, whether it's true or not (it's not), maybe compels them to aim high.

'Is Your Name Leonard Cohen?'
From time to time you get the feeling that you want to disengage yourself from your life. Because you're no different from anyone else. And because your life is filled with the same love and the same hate and the same beauty and the same ugliness as everyone else's.
You want to withdraw into some kind of solitary contemplation -- a locked room or a quiet corner of your mind just to think about everything for a while. You. Her. It. That. Them.
If you put it all down on paper according to a form of meter and line, you're called a poet.
And if you're a poet who sets it all to music, then your name is Leonard Cohen.
And this is your second album of--for want of a better word--songs.
And these are your songs from a room.On Columbia Records

tyler be aware that at this moment there are network execs haranguing their drones to "get me the next mad men" and the one that gets it will be a period piece from a different era with readily i.d'able costume/prop scenarios
what I'm saying is given that there could be subplots involving rock stars (more of that costume/character stuff people go nuts for) you should probably draft a pitch and get it to somebody

I remember a line from Julian Cope's autobiography where he says something like:
"People naturally assume Record Label people have some sort of respect for the artists on their label. This is hardly ever true"

I think tyler's series should end in 1975 - the year of Fogelberg.

So, inspired by this thread and the Billboarding site, I wrote a story about late 60s and 70s advertising in The Word (not online) and spoke to Stan Cornyn (in-house at Warners - did Neil Young, Joni, Randy, Van Dyke, etc) and Marty Pekar (freelance for Columbia - Dylan, Costello, Nick Lowe). I asked Pekar if he had anything to do with the infamous The Man Can't Bust Our Music campaign and he said this:
There was this guy named Jim Fouratt [who later co-founded the Gay Liberation Front) purported to be an expert on hippies. He would smoke marijuana in his office, he was the expert. And he came up with his knuckleheaded campaign and people said, Well Jim Fouratt he knows kids, let’s go with this. I had nothing to do with that. Nothing! It was horrible. I think the stuff he did got ridiculed and they fired him but for six months he was God up there because the executives thought wow, here’s someone really tuned in to today. They didn’t have a clue, the executives, what was going on.
So there you go.
And Stan Cornyn confirmed that Van Dyke was indeed upset by the ad but got over it.

Also, didn't know Roxymusic had four guitarists (or five, depending what instrument the guy in the lower right corner has) but no drummer?

You were doing so well too, Tuomas.

And when they're not recording albums, the light would have been just right to stage some photos for a fondue cookbook or something.

I browsed through a few of those old photos and kept seeing rock walls in the studios. Wouldn't rock be the most bouncy surface for echoes?

Hmmm, I'm not an acoustics person but I guess I'd depend on how porous a stone you specify...

Hell, I've known studio guys who'd freak out over that pane of glass (called a mirror) suspended over the board like that.

― AdamVania (Adam Bruneau), Thursday, 2 February 2017 01:52 (eight years ago)

1974 was a strange year!
but also this:
Gull was a British record label founded in 1974. Owned by Gull Entertainments Ltd., it was associated with Morgan Sound Studio, and was distributed by both Pye Records and Decca Records.[1] It was also distributed by Motown in the USA. Major bands on its books included Judas Priest, IF, Steve Ashley, Seventh Wave and Isotope
